    Durant, Harden, Westbrook (sorry Ibaka). How would your order would look like and why ? I think all of them are close as hell, I would take KD 1st with Harden trailing by the inch of the hair with Westbrook being behind the 2, but not by much.

    Durant, Westbrook and then Harden.

    Westbrook isn't too far from Durant anymore, he's really stepped up his play, his rebounding and passing is off the charts.

    I mean seriously, 24.3 points, 7.5 assist, 10.3 assist and 2.2 steals on 46% only 4.2 turnovers, and in just 34.6 minutes is pretty damn amazing.

    Career high in FG, TS, EFG, rebounds, assist, steals, dudes been healthy, great on defense, just having a monster season.

    Yeah, I'm revising my answer to Durant >>> Harden = Westbrook. Too close to call between the two, in my opinion. Both have their strengths and weaknesses over the other.

    Surprised anyone is picking Harden over Westbrook. Exactly what does Harden do better than WB?

    Wow...i suppose this season has ****ed so many minds...

    Durant + Wes didn't even reach the finals a single time, the Rockets finished 2nd in that freakin western last year playing with scrubs like Dorsey, Canaan, Terry, Black...and lol at guys saying Harden doesn't play any defense...like Wes and KD are good defenders...actually i think Harden is playing better defense than KD and Wes those last weeks.

    That said, i don't think Harden is better than KD, KD is a scoring beast, with that body...unstoppable, but i still think that Harden makes other players a lot better, KD not so much.

    Wes on the other hand i don't know, he always put great numbers but like a lot of people think, he's not smart enough to be the best player on a winning team imo, he's always out of control, and i don't think it's that easy to play with him...personally i'll always take Harden before him.

    With KD i don't know, i'm not sure i'll be able to choose between them...
    better have both :p

    Good question. Westbrook's defense is also pretty awful. Also, Harden seems to have better control of game and he did lead his team to play offs last year whereas last year's Westbrook's lead thunder missed playoffs. Harden seems more clutch, has better go to offensive moves, and to be a better shooter. I mean, Russell westbrook is a sub-30% 3 point shooter, and still takes 4 3s per game!

    It's been discussed at length but it really is a shame they couldn't keep their core together, especially with where the league has gone now.

    Westbrook
    Harden
    3&D Guy
    Durant
    Ibaka

    That team is better than the Warriors

    Durant
    Harden
    Westbrook

    At least Harden shows up offensively against the top teams. Russ lets matchups get into his head.
